حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ حُمَيْدٍ حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ عَنْ يُوسُفَ بْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ مَوْلًى لِآلِ الْزُّبَيْرِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ قَالَ
جَاءَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ خَثْعَمَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ إِنَّ أَبِي أَدْرَكَهُ الْإِسْلَامُ وَهُوَ شَيْخٌ كَبِيرٌ لَا يَسْتَطِيعُ رُكُوبَ الرَّحْلِ وَالْحَجُّ مَكْتُوبٌ عَلَيْهِ أَفَأَحُجُّ عَنْهُ؟ قَالَ «أَنْتَ أَكْبَرُ وَلَدِهِ؟» قَالَ نَعَمْ قَالَ «أَرَأَيْتَ لَوْ كَانَ عَلَى أَبِيكَ دَيْنٌ فَقَضَيْتَهُ عَنْهُ أَكَانَ ذَلِكَ يُجْزِئُ عَنْهُ؟» قَالَ نَعَمْ قَالَ «فَاحْجُجْ عَنْهُ»

✧ A man from Khath‘am came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said: “My father embraced Islam, but he is an elderly man who is unable to ride a camel, and hajj is obligatory upon him. Should I perform hajj on his behalf?” He asked: “Are you his eldest son?” He replied: “Yes.” He said: “Tell me, if your father owed a debt and you paid it on his behalf, would that suffice for him?” He said: “Yes.” He said: “Then perform hajj on his behalf.”
